This design is a quick flowing script that is both lively and original yet equally legible due to it's defined letterforms and open forms. In spite of working well in a regular format, throughout the design process I began to look at ligatures as a solution for fixing some problematic mixes. Nevertheless, this small execution soon got significantly expanded as I began to concentrate on the rythm of the letterforms and how best to communicate the hand drawn function in the design. A typical problem in most script typefaces is the duplicating letterforms that would be particularily un-natural for this manual typeface, therefore hinting at it's digital source. The ligature concept quickly developed into over 2400 ligatures, attempting to cover all duplicating glyphs in addition to finding more harmious combiations.
This design was produced for usage in short text settings and utilize at big point sizes matching titles, screen use or logo designs.
